NU outlines another $4M in budget cuts - CHRIS DUNKER, Lincoln Journal Star

The University of Nebraska added another $4 million worth of items to its running list of proposed budget cuts Tuesday as it seeks to close a shortfall of $49 million. The announcement included more than 70 specific items across eight nonacademic areas — primarily travel, public relations, printing and financial operations — to be implemented in coming months NU announced $25 million in potential cuts last month. Perhaps the biggest proposal unveiled Tuesday is a 90 percent reduction in reimbursements for cellphone and internet use by university employees. That move alone is expected to create $1.1 million in savings, said NU spokeswoman Melissa Lee said. http://columbustelegram.com/news/state-and-regional/nu-outlines-another-m-in-budget-cuts/article_e5f5e346-8e4c-57ba-a8a4-f9f5a717fff0.html
